puppetmaker: (Caroline and me)
I was glad to have my cup of coffee with me at the bus stop this morning. There was a breeze that just dropped the temperature enough to make it really cold this morning. I didn’t have a problem getting Caroline to wear her coat this morning. She had been protesting because she had been wearing a skort last week but she didn’t this morning.

It does feel more like fall than spring. The trees are telling me different. This is one of the greenest springs I have seen here. The trees look healthy and the grass is growing like weeds along with the weeds who seem to be in overdrive.

So this week I start work on the Field Day puppets. I have an idea how I am going to do all this but I need to get started. I need to find my cloth for the Elephant and the Pig. And I need to buy some cloth for the pigeon.

Then onto the BIG PROJECT. Bwwahaahaaahaaaaa….if I can find the right cloth. I have some but I need a lot more or a way to cheat what I am doing.

I got into the DragonCon Art Show so I need to work on getting stuff ready for that and the Farpoint show. I am thinking about entering a doll at San Diego this year because the Dimensions in Doll Making is going to be showing there rather than at the Quilt show.

Caroline has been busy in her sketch book drawing more things. She took it to the bus stop to finish up what she was working on. She loves to draw.

She is so proud that she is being given 2nd grade level math homework to do. She is working on understanding how to do the problems correctly but she is getting faster.

Peter has been working on his next episode of Ben 10 along with a number of other projects. He is trying to get as much done as possible before he goes to Uruguay this next weekend for a convention and lecture series. Ariel will be coming home this next weekend. Caroline is looking forward to having big sister home for the summer.

On the Daily Show, the May 10th edition, Jon Stewart used the words “fanfic” and “slash” correctly. I had to run it back to make sure I was hearing that right. I knew there were people of the fannish ilk there but this just proves how deep the geek goes.

OK I need to start something today. I think that the laundry and I are going to have words.

I am grateful for my daughter’s interest in drawing.
